Deal was 2 Royal Jamaicans and 3 Lord of Jamaica Pyramids, then Bryan PM's me asking if I minded if he threw in a few extras to try . No problem.
Well, his end showed up today.
A "few" extras ?
Never heard of the majority of them but everything had yellow cello, so that's a good start, I guess.

Here's the contents

2 Royal Jamaicans
3 Lord of Jamaica Pyramids
1 Lempira Presidente
1 Don Gaillermo Presidente
1 LA Estrella Cubana Diplomat
1 Montague Corona #1
1 La gloria Cameroon/Natural
1 Maya Elegante
1 Hugo Corona
1 Nirvana Double Happiness
1 Don Juan Corona
1 Cabanas Royale
1 Solareas Corona
1 Habana Gold
2 Don Lino Coffee Break
1 Corono Ramchero

Everything has about 15 years of rest on it, so let's see how they turned out.

Thanks, Bryan.

I have, Al.
I've ashed about 7 or 8 of them.
Not bad. All but one cigar were in good shape.
Very mild from the extended humi time, but that was to be expected.
Two that come to mind are the
LA Estrella Cubana Diplomat and the Montague Corona #1.

The La Estrella had a gorgeous red wrapper. It burned slow and long. Very enjoyable.
The Montague is the best one, so far.
Both were mello from age, but still tasty and smoooooooooth.

This was Bryan T's first trade on CBid. I'd have no problem dealing with him in the future.
I mailed my end about an hour ago.

I think he'll like it here.

Hope all is well with you.

Its a common issue amongst cigar smokers. For the price of a Gerants Golden Siesta a day, you too can help teach cigar guys how to count.

Wont you help solve this problem?

You must have never smoked a Gerants Golden Siesta.

If I still had any, I'd teach him to count if someone would take them off my hands. Even Sven says they're airballs with no taste....

JESPEAR is gonna keel the poor N00B (at least around here N00B, those smokes have napped a long non-n00bish time)

Nahhhhhhh.
Actually, I sent him less cigars than he sent me.
I took it easy on him.
